  1. New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released

    I have no skin in the game as I live in the USA, unlike many on here who go to a lot of games each year. I swear at least 30 NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL and MLS stadiums have been built in the past 20 years. On the whole, the new stadiums have more plusses than minuses compared to the old stadiums...

  2. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    ^^^ Ding Ding Ding. We have a winner. People also conveniently forget that United was terrible to start the season under Ten Hag. When was the last time United had a team where not one player was considered a top 50 player in the world? top 100 player in the world? This team is just...

  3. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    Well we were 14th when ETH was sacked, and ETH had a pretty easy fixture list up until that point. All things considered-- we are about equally as garbage under ETH. The warning signs were there. WE went from a +15 goal differential in ETH's first season to -1 in his 2nd season, to -7...

  4. Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

    ^^ It's this. He came midseason into a situation that resembles a burning dumpster fire. Just like Klopp who came midseason and results didn't improve his first year. It was year 2 where they improved by 14 or 15 points. It helps that in his first and second summer transfer window they...

  5. FA Cup 24/25 | 5th round: 28th Feb - 3rd March

    Would like to avoid City, Brighton, Villa or Newcastle away. IF we get one of those teams at home, so be it.

  6. Club ownership | Senior management team talk

    ^^ This. The club isn't turning a profit and has a lot of debt. Someone has to come in and cut costs to help get the club back on the right track financially. Lets be real-- the previous regime would have paid 55mm for Dorgu and handed him a 120,000 per week contract. Ineos didn't get...

  7. Transfer Tweets - Manchester United - 2024/25

    The players going out on loan don't have a future here. Why are people upset? We are hoping that the players go out on loan and increase their transfer value. I mean it's not like United is challenging for the title or the Arsene Wenger top 4 trophy and they need depth. Are you...

  8. Marcus Rashford (out) | signs for Villa on loan

    Todd, You just don't get it. RA came in and expects a certain level of professionalism. Rashford and Garnacho were not up to those levels of professionalism. Garnacho buckled down and worked his way back into the team. Rashford went public and said he wanted a new challenge...

  9. Marcus Rashford | 2024/25 Performances | loan to Villa

    Rashford had the opportunity to buckle down and become a team player, but what did he do? He said he was ready for a new challenge. HE QUIT ON THE TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!! He had the chance to get back into RA's good graces, but he burned all bridges by giving up and saying he wanted a new...

  10. The uncomfortable truth - United’s current finances.

    And you are ignoring the huge operating expenses that United have. Barca makes a lot of revenue too, but they are broke. It's not how much you make, it's how much you spend. United spends. Hojlund, Onana, Mount, Martinez, Antony, Casemiro, Malacia, Sancho, Ronaldo and Varane...

  11. Patrick Dorgu | Signed for £25.2m + £4.2m in potential add-ons, until 2030

    27 goals in 22 EPL games. At this point, I don't care if he can play any defense. With the 3 CB's who can cover defensively, United needs more attacking out of the wingback position. As long as he can add to the attack, while being passable on defense, I'm fine. Only concern-- pace.

  12. Amorim: «We are maybe the worst team in Man United history»

    We had 11 point in 9 league matches when he was sacked. That was on pace for being the worst team in generations. Not only was it 11 points in 9 matches, but United only faced 1 top 6 team in that time frame. In Amorin's 10 matches, we have faced top 6 opposition 5 times!!! (Bournemouth...

  13. Joshua Zirkzee | 2024/25 Performances

    I'm happy for him. He gets booed, but he doesn't quit. Lets face it, some players would quit and give up. He says he doesn't want to transfer out and he wants to fight for his spot. This is the kind of attitude that is needed by more players in the squad. Looking forward to the lazy...

  14. Samu Omorodion Aghehowa

    Actually he was born in Spain, not Portugal. I guess Chelsea had a deal with Athletico for him and it fell through. Tall, Strong, Quick, High Work Rate. That would be a nice change of pace from the short, weak, slow, lazy players that are currently in the squad. Doubt United can...

  15. Joshua Zirkzee (out)

    1.) If he stays here for another 6 months, it probably just tanks his value even more. So by loaning him out now, hopefully he can sustain and rebuild some of his transfer value. Also, United save money on wages and that matters. 2.) United need to sell/loan before they can buy...
